Ok, so this is take 2 for this topic. My first go was a fiasco simply because nothing shows and it’s a non editable post, bizarre at least.

I’ve had this kit for the past 18 years (hence the adult age) at least according to Scalemates, that states it was launched back in 2001.
I vividly recall my enthusiasm about it, it was a glorious plan to “superdetail” this bomber. Bought the then state of the art AM accessory, Verlinden set and planned to scratch a bit more the overall good details of the cockpit plastic

As it was I read in one of the most prestigious modeling magazines that this set contained a totally spurious PE detail meant to represent the Dornier’s dropped flaps. Well this (and probably some other things along) curbed my enthusiasm about buiding her, and back to the box it went, staying put for the past 17 years at least, resisting 2 house moves in that meantime.

So when TC challlenged us to build a Shelf Queen, this one was my first choice, and boy do I have plenty to choose.
Here’s what was inside the box:

1- main cockpit pasts painted- really good shapes here, a true testimony of how good late Monogram was in their mounding.

2 - some work in the glasshouse

3- general view of contents- notice the already carved areas for the flap inserts

4- no idea where or when did I purchased this resin set, but they sure look the part, so there’s hope for those holes

5- lots of sink holes in these parts. That'swhere I’ll resume work. Hope all the kits parts are still inside this box

Let’s see how it goes, thankfully I have a full year to build this little beast

@fiveten
Thank you Spiros my friend! Now I need to find a couple of magazines I have which I bought back then to serve as info, especially for the interiors. I’ll gladly share some photos of them should you want.
Had another look at thing in the box and found an instruction booklet for a box I had no recollection of having

and inside that booklet were the kit decals
They don’t look too well preserved now do they?
We all know Revell decals from early millennium were not that great and this one is no exception- the upper wing crosses are a complete bull***

So thank god I also purchased this Montex mask set

Though I will not be painting any of the planes depicted by Revell, these masks will be very helpful to paint the national insignias (even Montex has those upper wing crosses wrong! They must have simply copied those in Revell decals).
I hope that I can salvage at least some of the stencils presented in the decal sheet as there is no masking for them...

This looks like a great project. Not the easiest kit to get a good result from (in my experience) but the aftermarket stuff you have should go a ways there.

For some reason, Try #1 is non-editable to me as admin (unless someone knows different).

@holzhamer - my memory is fit is so-so and so is detail. There's nothing that's a huge problem, Like I said, the aftermarket will deal with the "so-so" part.

Hey there Pedro and everybody. Maybe we ought to start a group build just for this kit. I also have one in my stash only it's the ProModeler 2000 release. Probably the exact same kit. Sure is bigger than I remembered.

Were these original Revell-Monogram molds? I thought they had some origin with Trimaster?
Anybody know?

Hi Pedro -
I wasn't 100% serious but I found it interesting that several involved in this build have this kit in their stash. And I know exactly what you mean with all these models we committed to build. Have fun with this one. I will be following along..

Count me in, as I have the same kit to build, Pedro @holzhamer!

Well I found out that the back plate of Eduard’s 190s fits nicely on the kit spinner, plus these also come with the fan moulded jointly 🙂

All good to go I guess
